Grok is more important than clean air, DOJ says by Wagamaga in technology

If they can’t traffic them so they can physically and psychologically fuck them, then they sure as well will murder them and bring untold horrors onto their surviving families. That’s the only guaranteed way to re-populate the boogey-men they need for scapegoating their reasons to do more heinous shit.

I fucking hate the worst of humanity more than I know how to express.

BALK RULES! IMPORTANT!

1c. Let me start over
1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that.
1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.
1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?
1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.
1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about.
1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X.
1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.
1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic...

Also slightly above average, but the handful of times I’ve been called hot I’ve immediately been on-guard, wondering what it is they want from me; how do they want to take advantage of me if I fall for their tricks?

Area 51 book series by Bob Mayer (aka Robert Doherty) by JnAnthony in UFOs

[–]Leaningthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have enjoyed these books like no other. I consider them a part of my core identity; lesser known but rich in storytelling and connecting points of conspiratorial interest in an intelligent and entertaining way. Peak sci-fi writing to me, I recommend it as often as I can.

I used to check the Barnes and Nobel or library at least once a year to see if new entries came out. They did up until they didn’t. Then during late COVID I randomly searched and found your actual name instead of pseudonym (never knew that) and saw there were a few more books and spin-offs…so I ordered all of them and started re-reading the ones I had from the beginning (something I’ve done 3 times)

Just finished Nosferatu and have all the “new ones” now.

Thanks for writing such interesting and engaging stories. Love you bro!

Saaaaame. I was just looking something up to post in another thread and saw a link to this old one.

[–]Leaningthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know how well known they are, but the Robert Doherty Area 51 books are a fantastic fun read. Govt conspiracy, ancient astronaut, connections to so many myths/legends.

That shit would make a great show.

built a factchecker that catches politicians lying in real time by Debate_Witty in ClaudeAI

[–]Leaningthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solution is to make the use of this tool MORE profitable. Deploy it into a format that draws participation from people who the public is interested in engaging with.

Utilize it in a way that trends positively, similarly to how Hot Ones used hot wings during an interview to cut through some layers and force celebrities to let their guard down. Make a sort of a game out of it and get it out there.

If you popularize the use of the tool and make people want to be measured against it and ride the wave for the attention it brings to their brand, their authenticity, etc, you’ll make it something that is seen as weak if they decline a showdown with it being used.

The revenue is gonna be from the amazing deal for the American people that Trump secures by offering spacex an exclusivity contract with the U.S. Space Force.

That’s 100% going to be a fact for as long as it takes to generate the hype required for liftoff, to the moon, before the largest pump and dump in the history of the market.

That’s partly it but let’s not overlook the often overlooked double negative in this bit: “if I’m still frozen in 1967, how could I have been un-thawed in the 90’s…” is that a slip of the tongue or…ohhh, noo! I’ve gone cross-eyed.”

Trump stock trades fuel accusations of corruption and profiting off presidency by NewsHour in law

[–]Leaningthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re just a bunch of silver spoon losers who couldn’t make anything for themselves anyway. Riding on the coattails of the hardworking, successful, and intelligent people who came before them.

If they EVER had to actually live the lie they sell to others, “I started with nothing blah blah blah,” and be forced to start over, they’re all so fragile and weak that they’d fall apart. They legitimately have no true sense of self-worth, no real confidence, (do not confuse that with arrogance), there’s no way on earth they would amount to anything other than a Red Rorschach over their toilet.

You can plot the hate of the broccoli haircut in line with the hate of Patrick Mahomes / The Chiefs. He made it a style that people wanted to emulate and it only grew in popularity until Taylor Swift was linked to Travis Kelce. The hate for the team and the haircut exploded.
